What to look for when buying used plant

The most important fact to check about the plant you are hoping to buy is that it belongs to the person that is selling it. Do not simply hand over cash before having seen the machinery and check carefully that the owner is just that, the owner.

Ask to see the original supply invoice - if it is being sold via a plant dealer, ask for the details of the previous owners and check the machine's provinance. Buying from a franchised dealer where the details have been logged since new should give the buyer a little more comfort and go some way to justify any premium requested by the vendor.
